Rarity
Uncommon. This version is exclusive to a specific seasonal advent calendar rather than a standard retail building set.
Head
Light Flesh dual-sided head with reddish brown hair. One side features a slight smile, the other a worried expression. Topped with a unique tan pompom hat mold with printing.
Torso
Dark tan coat/parka printing over a dark red and white striped sweater. Design includes pockets, buttons, and a hood detail on the back. Flesh hands.
Legs
Dark bluish gray legs with dark tan coat extension printing on the hips and upper leg area to match the torso length.
Accessories
Typically includes a wand in dark orange or reddish brown (not shown in image). The pompom hat is the standout accessory included with the figure.
Color Scheme
Earthy and winter-themed: Dark Tan, Dark Red, and Dark Bluish Gray with a Tan hat.
Printing Details
High quality pad printing. Features a continuous coat design from the torso down onto the legs, which requires precise alignment during assembly.
Variants
There are many Ginny variants (over 10 versions), but this is the only one featuring this specific winter parka and pompom hat combination.
Condition Notes
Look for alignment issues between the coat print on the torso and legs. The tan pompom hat is prone to paint rubbing on the decorative pattern.
Estimated Value

Character Background
Ginny Weasley, the youngest sibling of the Weasley family and Harry Potter's eventual wife. This figure represents her in casual winter attire seen during later films/periods.
Design Notes
The use of the 'long coat' printing technique on standard legs is a modern design choice to simulate a trench coat or parka without using specialized leg molds.
Similar Minifigures
hp197 Ginny Weasley (Dark Brown Yule Ball Dress), hp308 Ginny Weasley (Gryffindor Sweater).
Collectibility
Moderate. Collectors of the Harry Potter 'Advent Calendar' series or those completing the Weasley family find this version essential for seasonal displays.
History
Released during the third wave of the rebooted Harry Potter theme (2018-present), reflecting the higher detail standards of modern LEGO manufacturing.
Interesting Facts
The hat piece is a relatively rare mold, and the striped sweater print is a subtle nod to the hand-knitted aesthetics often associated with the Weasley family.
Display Suggestions
Best displayed in a snowy Hogsmeade MOC or alongside the 75978 Diagon Alley sets for a winter-themed scene.
Modification Potential
The parka torso is excellent for custom 'City' or 'Hidden Side' civilian minifigures due to its generic but high-quality winter aesthetic.
Overall Assessment
A charming and highly detailed variant of a core character. While not highly valuable, its unique winter printing and exclusive headgear make it a standout for Potterheads.
